1990s & 2000s Music

Nirvana burst onto the scene in the 90s with ‘Smells Like Teen Spirit’ while Brit Pop was defined by Blur and Oasis, James, Happy Mondays and Pulp. Manic Street Preachers found their niche, while angrier sounds came from Beastie Boys and Rage Against the Machine, and DJing and rapping became more popular, with voices like those of Dizzie Rascal and JayZ seeping into the charts. Arctic Monkeys strode in with ‘Bet You Look Good on the Dance Floor’ while Arcade Fire set the tone for big bands and big sounds. And love songs? How about Beyonce, ‘Crazy in Love’?
